Thousands of people have had life-changing experiences with cleansing. No wonder they want to tell the world about their success. The secret to maintaining and building health is having a clean body-inside and out.

Body tissues must be free of toxins that can get in the way of normal bodily functions. Like a precision-crafted machine, dirt-free internal workings are far more critical to health than cleanliness on the outside.

Hope all of you are doing well. One of the highlights of our year is happening right now. Our son, Ben, came to visit for the weekend (He lives in Oklahoma City) and we are having a great time seeing him again.

We raised Ben on herbs and using natural remedies and even now (at age 25) he still uses many of the products he grew up with to maintain his health.

This is the time of the year when our immune systems may need some extra support so this issue will give you some suggestions you might want to consider.

As always, thanks for sharing our sites and ezines with your family and friends.

Prescription drugs commonly used to treat children and teens with aggression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia may lead to insulin problems, in turn boosting the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease later in life, a new study claims.

The research, presented Oct. 20 at the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry meeting in Washington, D.C., echoes what's been discovered about these drugs when used in adults, said Dr. Mark Riddle, director of child and adolescent psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

His study, he said, is believed to be the first to find the link between the antipsychotic drugs and insulin problems in children and teens.

Parent's Tip - Picky eater

Help! My 5-year-old daughter only wants to eat noodles with butter, chicken noodle soup, and pancakes! What should I do?

It can be frustrating when your child wants to eat the same thing every day - but it's not uncommon. Some children are picky by nature, but there are things you can do to encourage your child to try at least a few bites of nutritious food at each meal. Look for recipes that contain ingredients your daughter likes, and include her in the preparation. Being part of the grocery shopping, cooking, and serving may help keep her interested.
